DCPIB is the prototypical inhibitor of leucine-rich repeat containing protein 8 volume-regulated anion channels (VRACs), yet the structural basis and state dependence of inhibition remain unclear. Here, we used chimeric channels, targete...

Priscilla Rubio, Shayla Q. Whitaker, Jonathan Ashby et al.
Neuroendocrine ATP-sensitive K+ channels (KATP) comprise four pore-forming subunits (Kir6.2), each associated with a modulatory sulfonylurea receptor subunit (SUR1). ATP/ADP binding to Kir6.2 inhibits KATP; MgATP/MgADP binding to two dif...
